What educators are saying
Description
Fall Project Based Learning First Grade - Halloween PBL
In this Fall project based learning unit first or second grade students will take on the role of a scientist, exploring a pumpkin. They will carry out experiments to measure a pumpkin, make comparisons, use their senses and think about how pumpkins can be used to make different foods. They will draw a face they could carve into their pumpkin and think about how to best use it after the project.
Designed for first grade, this PBL for Fall is broken down into manageable lessons that can easily be delivered by the teacher and enjoyed by the class. There is a focus on writing and drawing at an age-appropriate level and instructions are written simply for children to follow.
